Thanks for your answer. I will try this.
I load an old save and did this:
1. Stealed in Front of Minthara. So she became temporary Enemy. Knock her out and she was temporary knocked out.
2. Freed Halsin and defeated the rest of the Goblins
3. Did a long rest.
4. Looked for Minthara in the temple. She was no more ko. to be sure I didn't talk to her.
From my point of view the method sounds more like an exploit than as a feature.
No problem, mate. You're good to go and she will appear at Moonrise later on... unless you come across some other bug.
I heard this method was there at launch but they removed it. At some point, people even started recruiting Minthara by turning her into a sheep. I think they just readded this because people asked them to. I could be wrong though...
That is why I find it hard to believe that the actual content of the "building up to a couple" is missing from the game. Why put all the effort in the post-story wrapup and nothing in the actual story ?
So I guess there's a bug that blocks the in-story progress. But how can Larian have missed this ?
This is the question we've all been asking haha! I sure hope they address this eventually, and maybe add more content to make up for it
